If you only need WPA2, use Odyssey Client. A member of MSFN gave us Odyssey Client! WPA2 is now available on 9x!!! I know - I'm using Odyssey Client. It attempts to connect using WPA2 OR WPA (either one) but it keeps saying "searching for *my SSID* " without actually connecting. When I set my …

I'd like to mention that I just fully installed Windows 98 on my D600 using these instructions. Boo-yah! But I had to make my WiFi security WEP for it to work. My laptop has the Intel 2100 card. Anyone had any luck with WPA on this card? I'm using the Lenovo drivers and the Odyssey client manager. …

I'm not super active on these forums, but my interest in 9x never dies so I come check every month at minimal. But be cautious because I'm not constantly on the forums. If you need something critical, message me on MSFN forums. Hey, how's the progress? Turns out the trottled CPU is a result of the …

Okay, I've ran into an issue (Not Windows related) so until I figure out how to bypass the unknown AC adapter error, I cannot use my laptop! My laptop has began to decide my charger wasn't genuine so it refuses to charge the battery and performance is crippled!

Hmmm...only one thing left, oddly Windows isn't displaying the battery status (the bios shows it perfectly fine). Tried going to power settings and no luck, Windows still refuses to show the battery status and always claims an ac adapter is plugged in. I know this is caused by keeping a laptop on …

Looking at a higher powered laptop that may run 98. Looking at a D810. However I reckon a Dell Precision M70 might also do the trick. I cant find drivers for the "Go 1400" Nvidia Graphics card. This is based on the Go6800. Can you see any reason why a Win98 install wouldn't work on this machine? …

While I go figure out how to make Windows 98 only see 512 mb ram, looks like I finally found the modem driver's name: Conexant D480 MDC. Figured it out when using the program Snappy Driver Installer (Offline version) while giving my D600 a dual boot of 98SE and XP.

So is it possible to use a DOS SB compatible driver that would recognize the Sigmatel audio? Or would someone have to hack a driver?

I'm not clear on exactly what you're trying to do. VDMSound for Win9x is alpha software and I wouldn't even bother trying it. Also, Windows 98 already in theory provides its own Sound Blaster emulation for programs running from an MS-DOS prompt. Is there a particular program you are using for …

Another update: If the PCI card has an issue, you will need to manually have the very bottom resource of it changed because its conflicting with something else! (Oh Windows 9x how you're always so unstable...oh well, I love you anyway)
